Those two work independently. Similarly for evolution-ews, it's part of the Flathub Flatpak already. > My Gnome Online Accounts is configured for Microsoft Exchange with > Mail, Calendar and Contracts all checked/green; so I'd guess that's > good. Right, it should be fine. The errors you see, it looks like some error on the evolution-source-registry side, maybe missing files. That the evolution-addressbook-factory cannot find "system-address-book" is suspicious, because it's the default address book, created by evolution-data-server on demand, supposed to be always there. I do run the same Flathub Flatpak version on a Fedora 32 box and it doesn't suffer of these issues. Close Evolution. Then check what evolution-related processes are running: $ ps ax | grep evolution Kill all which are from /app/ path. Then run Evolution from a command line like this: $ ESR_DEBUG=1 flatpak run org.gnome.Evolution which will start with evolution-source-registry debugging on. Maybe it'll show something useful. You can enable EWS debugging with EWS_DEBUG=1. Note that you might restart those /app/ processes too, to get the debugging on. (The background processes are not closed when the Evolution is closed.)

It's really hard to relate what you're saying to the message you're replying to. I had to scroll right down to the end to understand what you're talking about. Selectively quote the relevant part and add your comments after it. It's trivially easy to do this in Evolution (just select the part you want to quote before replying). poc ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list

Closing and reopen seems to be a problem, some processes related to flatpak are not finished. I did not report this, because I was going to keep an eye on this to be sure. I hope that help.

Re: [Evolution] Evolution Contacts recurring error
I also see when selecting the Personal Contacts: --- 8< --- Unable to open address book “Personal” This address book cannot be opened. Please check that the p ath /home/john/.var/app/org.gnome.Evolution/data/evolution/addressbook/sys tem-address-book exists and that permissions are set to access it. Detailed error message: Unable to connect to “Personal”: No such source for UID “system-address-book” --- 8< --- Another issue beyond my skill set/knowledge.

[Evolution] Evolution Contacts recurring error
Hello, I'm a old school programmer just starting with Linux Mint and loving it. I installed Evolution and during the original install it had a few errors but otherwise works (i.e., the Outlook.com Email and Calendar work great!). I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling a few times, but it seems that error message just won;t go away, AND I cannot access the Contacts. The red box/error message that opens when I switch to Contacts within Evolution reads as follows (the underlined part has been masked): --- 8< --- Failed to connect address book “___...@outlook.com : Recipient Cache” Unknown error --- AND --- Unable to open address book “Contacts” This address book cannot be opened. This either means that an incorrect URI was entered, or the server is unreachable. Detailed error message: Unable to connect to “Contacts”: No such source for UID “_” --- 8< --- I search quite a few hours and am at a total loss as to what to try next. I am so close I'd appreciate any help/suggestions. ___ evolution-list mailing list evolution-list@gnome.org To change your list options or unsubscribe, visit ... https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
